were opened for the reception of visitors.
Quite a number Of tho fair sex and a large
number Of gentlemen made their appear

for admission. There was not as large q
turnout as was expected. from the cir
cumstancc Of the general spread Of the

was announced and the pokes were sold
very rapidly. In each Of the pokes was

bought the poke must eat with the lady
whose name he found. Everything went

1t Is with satisfaction that We have
noticed the progress made by many Of
our young ladies In the study Of art. In

beautifed by pictures the result Of home
talent. To all who have made art a study,
and to those who have an ambition in
this line above painting ''roses on the
check" we offer congratulations upon the
arrival of an efficient teacher. Miss Anne.
liza Fulkerson, Of Rogersville, Is In u
town for the purpose of teaching an art
class. Miss Fulkerson in childhood,
recognizing the bent of talent that na.
ture gives, determined to make art her
study, and to native talent has added the
finest opportunities for the development
Of her specially that Boston afforded.
She has brought quite a collection Of her
own paintings and as oil who have seen
them pronounce them beautiful, we con-
graduate her upon the success of her
study us evidenced in her pictures. Her
art room will De at the residence Of Mrs.
Mahoney. We trust that many Of u
young ladies will avail themselves Of this
rare opportunity Of securing the instruc.
ton Of an accomplished teacher.

The Insect Pests.

Tho DesettIng Sin.

Wonder II the following from the
Knoxville Journal could be made to 1T
anyone in Washington c%ounty-we hope
not:
One Of the great curses Of the human
family Is lazlness. In the farmers con.
ventiop held last week, o facetious gen.
tleman, who took part In o discussion on
the depreciation Of the farming interests,
remarked that m reason why farmers
have no money Is that they do not
want it-they would rather spend their
Saturdays In town, and one or two other
days In the week hunting squirrels and
fishing than to have money. This will
apply TO some farmers perhaps, but Il will
apply with equal force to men Of all
classes. There are lazy farmers, lazy
mechanics, lazy lawyers. lazy doctors,
lazy preachers, lazy merchants, and, we
are sorry to say, lazy editors and publish.
ers II Is laziness and indifference that
brings about half the failures in the
world.
There Is an old and true adage. to the
effect that IAN idle brain Is the devils
Workshop" When the devil finds a lazy
man, and he dosen't need q lantern 70 find
them, he knows that he has good soil in
which TO SOW the seeds Of vice, and he
sows them, knowing that he will reap a
fich harvest. II you see q crop planted
late and then not cultivated, the weeds
choking out the grasses and preventing
the crop from maturing. the devil Is get.
ting In his work in some way. II you find
the mechanic with tools rusty from un.
use. you will probably find the owner Of
the tools loafing around the bar.rooms.
II Ne lawyer Is too lazy to prepare his
cases. II he has any cliant, he Is swind.
ling them by taking fees for services new.
er rendered. And II you find q lazy edi.
tor, you may look for a devil In his sane
tum. about the size Of an elephant As
to the lazy preacher, the devil grins from
ear to ear every time he secs him enter
the pulpit.
We are not sure but that l~aziness Is the
besctting sin OF the world, In that II 10
productive Of almost every vice, and
brings poverty and misery. 1t causes
men to lose respect for themselves and
when o man loses respect for and conf
dence In himself. he e rarely entitled to
the confidence and respect Of Others.

The Conjunction of venus and saturn.

-M. ft .H#N- .a#.mH.H
There will be q noteworthy astronomi-
cal event next Tuesday 1t MONDAY, when
Venus and Saturn will be at their nearest
point, the former being 2 degrees 10 min
utes north of the latter.
Though the planets will be invisible to
the naked eye at the time of conjunction,
they can be seen by the aid of powerful
telescopes.
The western sky, however, will present
a charming picture on the evenings of
the Goth and Both. Venus. the largest
and most beautiful star that shines in the
sky. is as easily recognized as the sun or
moon. Saturn may be easily found by
means of the two first magnitude stars,
Castor and Pollux, a few degrees north of
the planet. On the Goth Saturn will be
east of Venus, and on the Both he will
be found on the west Of his brilliant rival.
The reason for the meeting and part.
ing of the two planets may be easily ex-
planned. Venus is an inferior or inner
planet, and as seen from the earth Ia
moving eastward or from the sun. Sat-
urn Is q superior OF outer planet, and
seams 10 be moving -usasward or toward
the sun. When two planets are travel
ing, the M toward the cast like Venus
and the other toward the west, like Sat
urn, unless there be o change in theil
course, they must meet and pass on the
celestial road. There comes d point when
they are in the same right ascension o.
longitude. This condition Of affairs takes
place on the 30th. and the planets ore
then said to be in conjunction.
1t Is not only a pleasing spectacle to
behold the queen Of the stars and the
ringed wonder of the skies in near prox-'
unity, but the interest of the meeting Is
increased by the near neighborhood Of
the stars Castor and Pollux. The beam
ing planets and two first magnitude star
form q rare picture Of planetary and star
ry beauty. the shining quartet illustra,
ing the contrast between inherent an
reflected light.
The moon in her first quarter win ad
her soft light to the starry show, and til
exhibition will continue until 10 O'Clock
when the planets will slowly disappea
behind the western hills. T6
1t will be almost equally inter csting I
watch the planets as they approach eac
other before the 3Oth or as they reced
from each other after the 30th.

The Efreots of Mental Exhaustion.

Many diseases, especially those Of the
nervous system, are the products Of daily
renewed mental exhaustion. Business
avocatlons often involve an amount OF
mental wear and tear very prejudicial to
physical health. and the professions, II
~arduously pursued, are no less destruc-
tive to brain and nerve tissue. 1t Is one
Of the most important attributes Of Hos.
letters Stomach Bitters, that 1t compen-
safes for this undue loss Of tissue, and
that 1t imparts new energy to the brain
and nerves. The rapidity with which II
renews weakened mental energy and
physical vitalityis remarkable, and shows
that lis invigorating properties are of the
highest order. Besides increasing vital
stamina, and counteracting the effects OF
mental exhaustion, this potential medi-
cine cures and prevents fever and ague,
rheumatism, chronic dyspepsia and CON
stipatlon, kidney and uterine weakness
and other complaints. Physicians also
commend 1t las a medicated stimulant and
remedy. 4aa
